Vectorization States in Frequency Mode

In Frequency Mode, vectorization takes place at set intervals. The intervals are decided by multiple factors, including the data volume and data update frequency in your content sources.

When Neural Search or Hybrid Search are executed in frequency mode, you may come across one of the following vectorization state.

NOTE.

All of these states can be seen only on the day when vectorization takes place. For example, if the set interval is weekly, then these states display only once a week.

Vectorization Status: Waiting

This is the pre-vectorization state. During this state, the vectorization process begins and the system prepares to start. The toggle is active and upon hovering the cursor over the toggle, a "Waiting..." message is displayed.

Fig. Hybrid Search Vectorization Status: Waiting.

Vectorization Status: In-Progress

Vectorization is "in-progress" once in the set interval. You will see a loader when vectorization is in process. Upon completion, you will see the last vectorization date.

Vectorization Status: Paused

Vectorization is paused when manual or frequency crawling is in progress. The priority is: Manual Crawling > Vectorization > Frequency Crawling (Delta). When vectorization is paused, users can find results through keyword search.

Fig. Neural Search Vectorization Status: Vectorization Paused.

Vectorization Status: Temporary Disabled

Vectorization is temporarily disabled when a vectorized content source is removed from the search client and another content source is added. Vectorization kicks back into action when vectors have been created for the new content source. When vectorization is temporary disabled, users can find results through keyword search.

Vectorization Status: Error Encountered During Vectorization

When vectorization fails for any reason, an email is sent to SearchUnify admins and the search algorithms default to keyword search. Once the issue has been rectified, then frequency search jumps back into action.
